So High So Low

Lost

is the fleeting neon lights reflected in your eyes

as you're hunched in the back seat

cruising the night

Lost

is the bass thundering your heartbeats

taking you up into the emptiness above the clouds

away from the heat

Lost

is when you're in an unfamiliar place

longing for the home that no longer feels like home

the home that you'd never want to stay

but always think about every time you're away

Tucked

I am lost from head to toe

Every skin and sweat in the pore

I am naked down to the core

Love less lost more

Un-Being

I am the heat

Simmered in the smoke

That you sighed as it cut your lips

I am the thread on your pressed shirt

Waiting to be burned

At the stake of your fire

I am not the secret

One would ever want

To share with another

The last to love first

The first to perish last

Unintended

There's something about you,

That will always greet me out of the blue.

Is it the moles on your back?

Is it the nook of your teeth?

Or the bones beneath your cheek?

Maybe it's the crease on your collar,

Or the smiles that never get older.

Perhaps it's the way your finger,

Flick the ashes off the cigar.

There's something about you,

That made me smile,

That made me fly high,

Out of the blue.

Knellbombing

What was, what is and what will be?

I do not know.

For I have left the opened cage and last year's page.

And soar.

Into the ripples of light beyond the horizon.

Up the sky across the Orion's Belt.

I float.

If wounded, hurt, cursed, forsaken.

Come what may, let it happen.

For I am no longer afraid.

Of what was, what is and what will be.

For You,

Were, Are and Will Be with me.
